From their Web site:

"Truth Matters...Without It There Can Be No Justice"

"The mission of the Oklahoma Bombing Investigation Committee, a non-profit organization, is to find the whole truth about the fatal attack on the Murrah Federal Building on April 19, 1995. Through extensive eyewitness interviews and research, the Committee is working to bring all those responsible to justice. Evidence presented at this web site is documented, compiled from more than two years of investigation."

This site contains interviews, articles, transcripts and statements such as the following:

"After the explosion which devastated downtown OKC, Bruce Shaw and his supervisor rushed to the scene to look for his wife, who was one of the many injured. There they spoke to an ATF agent about the bombing, and he admitted to being tipped-off on his pager not to report to work that morning."

Researcher/Activist Jon Rappoport has followed this issue since its inception. In this piece, he recounts a very interesting interview with a Grand Juror hearing the evidence that led to the McVeigh trial - a Grand Juror who ended up getting kicked out when it was found he had talked to the media. But the man was glad, feeling the story was too important to lay buried in sealed Grand Jury records.

While mostly a snide put down of conspiracy theories, this short piece does have some pertinent information showing evidence (not proof - but evidence) of a second explosion.

This appears to be the largest collection yet of articles related to this event that I've seen. Some pieces are better than others. Read and decide for yourself.

Excerpts from an essay (allegedly) by Timothy McVeigh, published in Media Bypass in June, 1998

Real History Chief Archivist Disclaimer: While I feel the contents of McVeigh's letter are well-stated and important, I cannot condone the killing of hundreds of innocent people to make any political point. McVeigh makes excellent points on the hypocrisy of the language we use when referring to the terrorist acts America has inflicted upon other parts of the world.


“The administration has said that Iraq has no right to stockpile chemical or biological weapons ("weapons of mass destruction") - mainly because they have used them in the past. Well, if that's the standard by which these matters are decided, then the U.S. is the nation that set the precedent. The U.S. has stockpiled these same weapons (and more) for over 40 years. The U.S. claims that this was done for deterrent purposes during its "Cold War" with the Soviet Union. Why, then, is it invalid for Iraq to claim the same reason (deterrence) - with respect to Iraq's (real) war with, and the continued threat of, its neighbor Iran?”
